revaluation surplus

Read a random definition: inclusive grant

A quick definition of revaluation surplus:

Revaluation surplus is the extra money a company makes when it revalues its assets at a higher value. For example, if a company owns a building that was worth $1 million but is now worth $1.5 million, the company has a revaluation surplus of $500,000. This surplus is not from the company's profits, but from the increase in the value of its assets. It is like finding extra money in your piggy bank because the coins you saved are now worth more than before.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Revaluation surplus is the surplus gained when assets are reappraised at a higher value.

For example, if a company owns a building that was purchased for $500,000 but is now worth $700,000, the revaluation surplus would be $200,000.

This surplus is recorded on the balance sheet as a separate line item and is not considered earned income. It is a result of an increase in the value of the company's assets.

Revaluation surplus is also known as appreciation surplus.

this old guy just came up to me at the gym and told me about his back surgery

[] baddestbunny
16:20
I’ve def said this before
16:21
applying to jobs yayyy
16:30
Let me tell you about how I had five fractures in my back bunny. Got those fractures missing the mat high jumping.
[] baddestbunny
16:40
My three guesses for why you were high jumping onto a mat are a) track and field b) army training c) gymnastics
[] baddestbunny
16:40
are any of these correct?
[] baddestbunny
16:41
Also much more impressive than this guy’s back injury which came from being a 18-wheeler driver for many years
16:46
Oh yeah, track and field. Man that sucks for that guy.
Trying to decide if I should waste the money applying to like, duke/va/nw/tx/ucla even though I doubt I would attend
16:53
Why would you not attend?
I'm already gainfully employed in NYC and wouldn't want to relocate for a lower ranked program w/ worse chances of a big law outcome
16:56
Ehh well I wouldn't apply then unless they had some sort of niche program you really liked.
yeah, just worried if i set my sights too high i'll be disappointed across the board like i was last year
16:57
It's kinda like buying an insurance policy incase you don't get into any NY schools but I don't see why you would not.
yeah, same, but i see people with all these UVA A's and I'm like, I could've lobbed that up in september too
17:01
Ahh well, idk, all I can say is good luck!
